Best introduction to pool that I've ever seen. It's great for those that know a little, but need more explanation of what actually occurs on a table.

Tony's been around awhile. Great guy
exactly. totally, totally perfect
I think mastering the first three Levels would be enough, to beat 95% of all amateur player
Yeah you're pretty much right haha
I've mastered almost all of these and still have stiff competition where I am. I play league though.
No
Level 5 imo. Mostt 'bar-level' players can strike the ball well enough, knock in one off pots. Playing position, plotting a map around the table, being able to open and close angles using spin etc, put you on that level above.
Many amateurs have great natural skill and experience. So it all depends
Love Tony, very down to earth. Met him a couple years ago where he was performing pool tricks to people. Great to see hes still doing well

agreed dude. _100%_ perfect
There were so many misconceptions about pool among my college classmates when I was learning to play. It took me years to learn all of this and this video covers so much in under 13 mins. Well done.
I don't think anybody who doesn't play pool regularly know very much about this. It is really something cool!
I've never seen anyone explain the different shots in pool so perfectly. Simple and straight to the point explanations that tell you how it is. There are a few things I've learned about side spin and stop shots that i've been doing wrong for years so im glad I stumbled across this video
Practice makes perfect...before you could watch CZcams videos to teach you U had to to practice practice and practice. I'm old school....a long range sniper..I can make any shits no matter how far it is but for years had problems with banks shots...took me months of playing by myself in bar tables to master it
wow! super informative, ive always wanted to know this kind of stuff, excellent editing to go with the info aswell. Great job

Tony stops by my pool stream for pointers often, mostly "stay down on your shot", amazing guy.
this is actually the perfect way of teaching my current level, so well done. thanks a million!
took a class in college to learn how to play pool. I didn't learn a thing - everyone else already knew how so they were just there to play pool, not to learn. Nobody even wanted to play with me. 😥 I wish they had CZcams University back then! This video would have been very helpful.
Valarie,

This actually helped me to get my game better. The shots I wasn't good at were kicks and banks, but him teaching the dot method helped a ton.
Finally the dots have been explained to me!!! Haha I just got good at guestimating my bank/kick shots
Loved this video. Personally, the best improvement to my own pool game was learning how to play snooker for a tournament. Much bigger table with smaller pockets, had to be very accurate to sink anything. If you're used to a pool table, a snooker table looks like a golf course.
Hi Cyssane,
I used to practice on a Snooker table for 30 minutes a day in my 20's as part of my practice routine.
After my practice, the 9ft table looked like a 5ft table and the shots were WAAAAAY EASIER to pocket because the Snooker table is 12' x 6'. Great way to practice!

Great class on knowing how to shoot pool! Been shooting pool since 15yrs (45yr old now) and this would have been perfect to have back then. But I'll be sending this video to my sons so that they can learn.
Thank you for teaching this!
Pretty comprehensive guide to know my skill level. I've mastered up to level 7, working on things up to level 10, clueless at level 11 and beyond.
Hi Zan'theros,
Thanks so much for your comment!
Glad you liked the video! It takes time to master these techniques. If you focus on one at a time you should be able to learn them quicker. I hope that helps.

ngl i went to play pool yesterday and suddenly i see this in my reccomendations which shocked and surpised me it seems someones watching me knowing i cant play pool
Best video I found yet. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Clearly haven't watched the Donald Duck sacred geometry video
Best explanation of pool tips and tricks. Crystal clear explanation with examples
The first time I looked up I thought the pockets were HUGE. Trns out the shadows on the top rail greatly exaggerated how big the pockets were.
The editing in this video is insane, super informative, thanks WIRED.
I love how I bridge differently to all the techniques but it still works really well
It's awesome to hear explanations for the things I was just taking guesses about.
Thank you so much for this video. I’m roughly at level 5. Gosh darn this was shocking on how much deeper the game goes. I love it♥️
Pool is one my favorite games to play.
Good elementary breakdown of pool basics. Always nice to be reminded of the importance of having a solid foundation before moving "up" into more advanced pool technique.
this feels condescending

@@tonyrobles9070 cool Thank you !
Excellent intro showing the different things to focus on as you grow in confidence. One thing I'd say is beyond the basics beginners need to be aware that table quality can greatly effect shots, some old tables may have compacted banks leading to a lot of power loss when playing bank shots and sometimes ruining the angles; also masse and jump shots require a decent thickness to the table cloth, without it such shots are almost impossible and very frustrating to practice.
Mind you misplaying Masse and jump shots can result in damaging the cloth so a lot of places ban them.
4:15 okay I've always wondered how this works. the guy who taught me to play taught me everything in this video, except for this. Not sure why it was missed, and I just never noticed what controlled it, but I always wished I knew how to control it. thank you for explaining and I'm glad it's such a simple answer
The 3 shot ahead plan helped me a lot even tho its simple logic👍 I used to plan just for the next shot and then i suddenly didnt have where to shoot. I started planning for more shots ahead and now iam much better. Thanks!!
Hi!
Glad to hear the 3 shot ahead thought process helped your game!

I played pool for years as a kid and I've only forgotten a little of what I learned, but I was glad to know I can still do every single shot he showed here up to the masse shot.
Fantastic videos, kudos to the instructor and the editors.

Love the ghost ball idea because side hits are one of things I struggle with the most as a beginner pool player
Been playing for years and never understood the 90 degree stop shot before. Thanks a bunch!
Best guide I ever seen for the pool. Thanks for the video.
Pretty good. I shouldn't critique someone as good as him, but he probably wasn't the person doing the break shots. Except for certain games, you need to control the cue ball during the break and hope the cue ball stops near the center of the table. You don't want the cue ball out of control and falling in to a pocket. And if the ball is in the middle of the table you should have more options after the break. When you can break really hard and the balls stops near the center of the table without hitting a rail, you know you are doing pretty good.
I'm glad I found this video because it's really helpful
Great introduction and explanation of the basic principles!
This is the best explained pool video I have ever seen u have really helped me 👌
No nonsense, the perfect introduction to pool. Need more lessons of defensive, ghost ball and more tips on how to be dominant in every game. ♥️
Great stuff Tony 👍🏻💪🏻👍🏻
Incredibly informative. Thanks so much.
I've always wanted to get into the sport, it's so much fun! Unfortunately though - there aren't any pool clubs near me :(
Maybe arcades have some near?
Is this even a sport😂😂😂?

I’m both a juggler and a magician. I LOVE pool. It’s Circus and Magic in the same moment: The performer announces a trick and achieves it, but then the cue ball changes direction and somehow lines up for the next shot, like magic!
Killed it, great video
He is extremely thorough in teaching these tricks awesome
This is amazing for beginners, and he explains each shot and level perfectly 👌✨ W man

Nice insight! But you forget to mention that there's a throw effect to the target ball when you hit the cue ball with a side spin. The direction of the target ball is slightly different compare to a shot without side spin. Using left spin on the cue ball will throw the target ball a little bit more to the right than without adding side spin, and vice versa.
Hi Minor Voices,
This is true! It also depends on how clean/dirty the balls are. The dirtier they are the more it'll throw and vice-versa.
Thanks so much for your input and have a great day! 👍 😊 🎱

This was waay better than I expected
we just recently got a pool table in our house so this video has been great at teaching me the different ways to actually hit the ball and to understand what actually goes on, rather then just blindly hitting a ball i see hoping it goes in.
